Governor please stay

"Are you saying that I want to usurp the throne and die a terrible death?"

Liu Yishou asked helplessly.

Yuan Shikang nodded slightly and said: "It's like this, the former servant He Chen is crying at the Taimiao. There are many onlookers."

He Chen is an upright person, he is considered unusual among the former ministers of Nanliang, and he is very famous.Liu Yishou has always been unwilling to touch him. First, he wanted to tell the world that loyal ministers should be respected at least;

I didn't expect this guy to dance like this after he resigned!It's really a bit ignorant!

He was not seen jumping out during the Northern Expedition, and now that Liu Yishou was about to usurp the throne, he immediately went to the Taimiao to cry and mourn, to gain fame and fame, and tried to step on Liu Yishou's head to go down in history.

"After He Chen resigned, how will he support himself?"

Liu Yishou suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked in doubt.

Yuan Shikang naturally didn't know about this kind of thing, but Liu Yishou had the impression that Yang Xiuzhi was always well-informed, so he sent someone to invite Yang Xiuzhi to Wu Wangfu's study.

After Yang Xiuzhi arrived, Liu Yishou explained to him the purpose of his visit, and the "emperor flatterer" suddenly realized: "My lord, why should you be distracted by such trivial matters. This He Chen, my subordinates have long disliked him, and I I had caught him a lot of braids before, but I didn't get the lord's order, so I didn't say anything, but I didn't expect him to push his nose and face up.

He Chen is proficient in "Book of Rites" and acts upright, but he is greedy and stingy.He is currently lecturing in Kuaiji for a living. He often tells people that the lord will usurp the throne in the future, which has a very bad influence in Sanwu.

The subordinates already knew how to deal with him. "

Yang Xiuzhi said with a smile, looking quite confident.It's not been a day or two since he and He Chen's Liang Zi have been collecting black materials about each other.

"He Chen is no longer a courtier. Dealing with him directly doesn't seem to have a good effect."

Liu Yishou asked hesitantly.

Obviously, it is not worth spending too many resources to deal with a He Chen.Now that he is the King of Wu, and he takes action against a rich man who doesn't even have an official status (He Chen's family is very rich), he seems to be ugly and easily misunderstood.

He is not afraid of others saying that he is a scumbag, taking girls into the harem for political purposes, and Liu Yishou has no psychological pressure, but he is very afraid of those bad things that have political influence.

Every day being clamored and said that he wants to rebel, that's something Liu Yishou doesn't want to see!

It's just that no one would say anything when the imperial court sanctioned officials according to the law, but when the government deals with ordinary people, in Jiankang and Taicheng, it is easy for the public to see the truth.It will make those Jiangdong rats think that they are guilty.

Liu Yishou was weighing the pros and cons, and He Chen was just a disgusting toad, unable to make any trouble.

"Hey, my lord is really worrying."

Yang Xiuzhi continued with a sneer: "First, my subordinates will not send someone to beat He Chen, second, they will not imprison him, and third, they will not drive him out of Jiankang. My lord will wait and see."

Seeing his self-confidence, Liu Yishou was very puzzled, but this matter itself was not a big deal.He Chen's behavior can't hurt Liu Yishou even a little bit, even Xiao Yujin is on his side, so what about the others?

"That's fine, but don't hurt people's lives, don't be rough, that will make people feel that we are guilty."

Liu Yishou exhorted.

"Before sunset tomorrow, I will do it for the lord."

Yang Xiuzhi bowed deeply to Liu Yishou and said.It is difficult for Liu Yishou to come forward for many things, so he is the most suitable to do the work.

……

"The first emperor! Open your eyes and take a look! The son-in-law you chose is already about to usurp the throne!

Just now the imperial court has issued an imperial edict, saying that the etiquette system of King Wu will be the same as that of the emperor!Late Emperor, the Kingdom of Liang is about to disappear! "

In front of the Imperial Temple not far from the south gate of Taicheng, He Chen with disheveled hair knelt on the ground and howled.

People who cry at Taimiao have been a bad street since ancient times. This kind of "political performance art" has never lacked a market.He Chen was surrounded by people, most of them were pointing at him, and most of them were watching the excitement, which didn't arouse any sympathy.

It's not that what He Chen said is unreasonable, basically anyone with a little brain knows what King Wu of the Liang Kingdom wants to do now.

But it's not surprising that He Chen's words didn't resonate.

Because Xiao Yan is not good to ordinary people!There is no favor to the people in the south. On the contrary, the Fushanyan incident killed tens of 10 people because of Xiao Yan's stubbornness!

Not to mention other bits and pieces.

If Liang Guo was really invulnerable and monolithic, how could Liu Yishou find a chance to rise to the top?

Qin lost his deer, and the world chased it.

It is "Qin" who loses virtue, how can he resent the world's competition for the throne?

Many people present even secretly rejoiced that it was Liu Yishou who took the position.The living place in Wu Wangneng Town is much better than before, at least the turmoil is gone, and the government does not arrest people for corvee from village to village like before.

If it were someone else, who knew what would happen now!It can only be worse!

"He Chen! Both of your two sons were conscripted by the imperial court as Yuanwai Lang (a regular attendant of Yuanwai Sanqi), and you are still pretending here! You are the only one who is noble, right?

Eating King Wu's meal, holding King Wu's bowl, and still scolding King Wu here, are you still human?You are a typical fishing for fame! "

A small official in a green robe came out from the crowd, pointed at He Chen and cursed.

Of course Yang Xiuzhi wouldn't come off the stage to scold He Chen himself, but that doesn't mean he can't call a helper!

"Impossible! You are talking nonsense! Even if the imperial court expropriates, my two unworthy sons will not be able to go! You are lying!"

With red eyes, He Chen scolded the green-robed official, obviously panicked!He never expected that Liu Yishou would use this move to "praise and kill".

"Hey, the clean is clear, you just wait and see! Find out if I'm lying or you are deceiving the world!

Everyone, take a look at it all, it's people like He Chen who are talking about eating and smashing pots.

King Wu didn’t see him when he was killing the enemy in Hebei, and he didn’t see him applauding when he sacrificed prisoners in Taicheng City. Now that the country is fine, he just ran out. Pooh!His son has just entered the central government as an official! "

The green-robed official spat a mouthful of phlegm onto He Chen's robe, and then walked away.

After a while, another person came, this time he wasn't even an official at all, he was just an official in the yamen, pointing at He Chen and scolding him again.At this time, many people in the crowd were already discussing, mocking He Chen for his fame.

He Chen thought that everything was over, but in fact this was the beginning.

The "extra actors" invited by Yang Xiuzhi took turns to take part in the battle, one of them would accuse He Chen of not knowing good and bad, and some would say that he was just trying to gain fame.In the end, He Chen's cousins ​​came to persuade him to go back and stop doing stupid things.

He Chen was brought up by his uncle since he was a child. When he saw his cousin come to persuade him, He Chen was so anxious that he couldn't catch his breath and passed out!

Yang Xiuzhi said it would take two days, but in fact he killed He Chen in one day.On the surface, this incident seemed to be over, and He Chen had no face to appear in front of the Taimiao again.

However, Yang Xiuzhi obviously didn't intend to let him go, and arranged for him one after another.

Previously, because He Chen was greedy for cheap, he bought a big house that surpassed the etiquette system.No one cared about him when he was an official (many court officials are like this), and now he is no longer an official, this is a big reason that is untenable anyway.

After He Chen's cousin sent the comatose He Chen back to Kuaiji, Yang Xiuzhi immediately asked the local government to notify He Chen, asking him to come to Jiankang Jingzhao Mansion to surrender himself in ten days, and to confess that the houses in Jiankang City were overstated. The problem.

If the confession is not clear, the court must confiscate his house before selling it.

And He Chen's two sons were recruited by the imperial court to become officials, and the two directly broke with He Chen for the sake of their future!Without telling He Chen, they came to Jiankang King Wu's Mansion to intercede with Liu Yishou, saying that adults don't remember villains, and the two brothers will definitely take good care of their father who is idle at home, so that the other party will not come out to make trouble again.

Liu Yishou made it clear that the two brothers should respect their parents and not neglect their father. All this was He Chen's misunderstanding of him, and it was not a big deal in itself.

Whether they can keep their official positions has nothing to do with their father He Chen!

As long as you work diligently, you are the talents that the court needs. Liu Yishou said that it is absolutely impossible for him to target and suppress such talents.

After the news spread, everyone in the world praised King Wu for his broad mind and disregarding previous suspicions.

Many descendants of aristocratic families in the Southern Dynasty who were dissatisfied with Liu Yishou were all terrified and worried when they learned of Liu Yishou's mind-killing operation.Even cursing in private is much less, for fear that the other party will also give me a set of combined punches.

If a person has reached the point where he is so powerful, he can kill with a frown and a smile, and he doesn't even have to target anyone specifically.

Today Liu Yishou deliberately let He Chen go, otherwise he would be prosecuted in accordance with the law, and the death of He Chen's family in prison would be the lightest punishment.The He family can't even tell clearly about the set of over-regulated houses.

Liu Yishou's little trick not only made himself a good person, but also broke He Chen's father and son, and encountered the ridicule of the world, so that his reputation was notorious.

A lot of knives, killing without blood.

Many monsters eat people without spitting out their bones.

Today's Liu Yishou has become the leader of these "monsters". There is no obstacle to what he wants to do, it's just a matter of whether he wants to or not.You can do what you want to do, and it is not too much to describe it as doing whatever you want.

After learning the cause and effect of this incident, Li Zuyi's elder brother Li Zusheng burned and rewritten the letter he was going to send home, and even mentioned Liu Yishou in the letter in a more respectful tone.

Chapter 636 Dare to be the first in the world

"...Generally speaking, the problem is very big."

In the study of Prince Wu's Mansion, Yang Min talked eloquently, but Liu Yishou looked at his face with burning eyes, looking thoughtful.

"My lord, this matter cannot be ignored."

Finding Liu Yishou silent, Yang Min said in a low voice, frowning slightly.

"I always feel that your face is full of spring breeze. You can't be the second girl of high school...that?"

Liu Yishou said something that almost broke Yang Min!

"My lord! My wife is only 12 years old! 12 years old!"

Yang Min said with a helpless sigh, emphasizing and emphasizing!

The second girl in high school is well educated and intelligent.Although her appearance is far inferior to that of her elder sister Gao Ling, her IQ is very high!

After meeting and chatting for a while, Yang Min knew that this must be his future good wife, and he respected Gao Ermei very much.Yang Min has no shortage of women, so how could he be so eager to consummate his marriage with his fiancée who is bound to become his wife?

In fact, although the two have slept together now, they have never done anything excessive.The second younger sister of Gao also respects and appreciates Fatty Yang very much, and thinks she has found a good home.

Even Yang Min, who is proud and arrogant, has to admit that Liu Yishou's eyes are indeed bright in protecting the media this time.These days, there are pretty girls all over the streets, but a good match is hard to find.Now Yang Min doesn't just treat Liu Yishou as his lord and boss.

"It's a pity, I'm still planning to go to your house to drink your wedding wine, it seems that I can only wait a few more years."

Liu Yishou smiled and waved his hands, as if he didn't care about the "serious problem" Yang Min just said.

"My lord, the aristocratic families in the south often have salt wells in the territory under their jurisdiction, or have salt ponds near the sea. These people do not pay salt tax all the year round, and use salt to control surrounding tenants and even self-cultivating farmers.

If things go on like this, it is a great threat to national stability.The subordinates suggested that the lord organize special personnel to search and confiscate these salt wells and ponds, and resettle the salt households responsible for salt production.

No matter what the court's salt policy is, it is impossible to be a tree without roots and water without a source.The imperial court lacks the salt ponds and salt wells that produce salt, which is impossible to play no matter what! "

Yang Min put his sleeves together and bowed deeply to Liu Yishou.

The other party has given him a wife, so he naturally has to do his best to do things instead of dealing with errands.

It is not new for aristocratic families to hide salt wells and make salt privately.At that time, Prime Minister Zhuge of the Shu Han suppressed the tyrannical powers in Shu, so he focused on cracking down on private salt from aristocratic families, and the results were quite fruitful!

If it weren't for this, it would have been impossible to fight against Cao Wei with a corner of Shu for decades.

However, after the Sima family usurped the throne, the private salt of the aristocratic family was like a wild horse that had run loose, and could no longer be contained.

After the chaos of the Northern and Southern Dynasties began, the power of the aristocratic family was unprecedentedly strengthened after being reshuffled. Not only did the private salt of the aristocratic family fail to restrain itself, but intensified it, penetrating from the economic level to the political level.

Many local tyrants have monopolized the production and sales of local salt, and with ulterior motives, it is not new to collude with local officials to sell salt.

It is Liu Yishou's established national policy to restrain and suppress the aristocratic families of the Southern Dynasties, and conspiracies and schemes are played in rotation.Therefore, although what Yang Min said is not urgent, it is very important, and it will be a major event in the next five, ten or even 20 years.

"There are too many salt households, so it's not easy to resettle them. Dealing with the southern aristocratic families in this way will easily cause them to rise up and affect our unified plan."

Liu Yishou sighed with emotion.

Accepting girls from aristocratic families are unspoken rules that should not be put on the table. They seem to be very important, but if there are no other means to support them, they can only be heard.To put it bluntly, it's just to harvest a beauty and satisfy a man's lower body.

Now that he is the king of Wu, will he lack women?

And Yang Min's salt policy is the most important thing!A matter of life and death!

"My lord, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Private salt from aristocratic families competes with official salt, but they don't pay a penny of tax. All the profits are made by those places. It's really unreasonable."

Yang Min said indignantly.It's fine for the family to make money by themselves, and at the same time not let the government make money, it's really damn it!If these people are not cleaned up properly, Yang Min will not feel good eating.

"We don't take this matter seriously on the surface. If you act rashly, you will not get the support of the people, and you will also offend the children of the family. It is not advisable."

Liu Yishou waved his hand, denying Yang Min's suggestion.The aristocratic family's private salt tax evasion "has long been custom-made", which can be regarded as a compromise made by the imperial power seeking the support of the aristocratic family for a hundred years in the Southern Dynasties.

It's not that it can't be investigated, nor is it that no evidence can be found, but that it involves too much.The problem of salt is not just about salt itself, just as a person who has a headache is not necessarily a head injury.

A fact that cannot be ignored is: the private salt of the aristocratic family is cheaper than the official salt of the court because it does not have to pay taxes to the court!

Is it really good for the people in the short term to confiscate the private salt of these aristocratic families?I'm afraid not necessarily.

For ordinary people, the same quality of private salt from aristocratic families, to some extent, reduces their living costs.Because they can use less money to buy private salt from aristocratic families that is the same as official salt, or even slightly better.

Simply thinking that the imperial court is doing "good deeds" is a bit taken for granted. Any policy has its two sides and complexity.

This is the game between the aristocratic family and the center of the court.The opponents are not lambs to be slaughtered, and they also have comparative advantages at the economic level.

If Liu Yishou rashly sent troops to confiscate the family's salt ponds and salt wells, it would inevitably affect the lives of many ordinary people in the surrounding area, making them have to buy official salt, and it may not be easy to buy.

Breaking through existing sales channels without mature alternatives is bound to cause problems.

At that time, whoever is more reasonable will not be what Yang Min and others think they are, and reality will give a fair judgment.If someone raises their arms and shouts at that time, civil unrest may really break out.

This kind of situation is an unwarranted disaster, a completely avoidable "man-made disaster", rather than an uncontrollable natural disaster or an enemy country's invasion.

Sure enough, Yang Min stopped talking immediately.
